Here's a small sampling of the preservation focused projects Gambrel & Peak has worked on:
Site Survey, condition assessment, & Digital Mapping of St. Louis Cemetery No. 2
- New Orleans, LA
For the subject survey each of the 1,428 plots within St. Louis Cemetery No. 2 were individually studied and documented, utilizing ArcGIS software in the field. The data points were then uploaded to create a comparative quantitative analysis of each of the three squares that make up the current footprint of the cemetery. Every tomb, plot, and monument, was also geotagged and supplied with a condition rating to aid in conservation efforts.
